Definitions
- the invention relates to ultrasonic testing equipment for the non-destructive testing of a test specimen with
- test head in particular an angle test head
- a transmitter which is connected to the test head and which generates and emits transmission pulses to the test head
- a receiver which is connected to the test head and receives echo signals
- a monitor with a display which is connected to the receiver to show the received echo signals
- test head emits ultrasonic pulses and penetrates the test specimen at a certain angle, which penetrate into the test specimen, where they are reflected at least once on a rear wall of the test specimen and thereby at least a first leg, which extends from the entry surface to the rear wall, and one Form the second leg, which then extends from the rear wall to the entry surface.
- the invention also relates to a method for displaying echo signals which are obtained with the aid of an ultrasound test device described above for the non-destructive testing of a test specimen.
- Suitable test devices are known for the non-destructive testing of a workpiece by ultrasound.
- the angle probe emits high-frequency sound impulses (approx. 1 - 10 MHz), which are echoed into the workpiece to be tested and which are then reflected on the entrance surface on the one hand and run back to the angle probe and which penetrate into the workpiece where they touch the rear wall of the Workpiece are reflected at least once.
- Internal inhomogeneities such as a material defect, cause sound reflections that are received by the angle probe and processed in the ultrasound device.
- the method according to the invention is suitable for a large number of customary measurement methods; the invention is explained below using the pulse echo method as an example.
- the angle probe preferably emits ultrasound pulses periodically and then receives echo signals from these emitted ultrasound pulses.
- the echo signal of the entrance surface is a particularly strong signal that exceeds the other echo signals.
- the other echo signals originate from the workpiece and in particular from the rear wall of the workpiece.
- the test method is suitable for workpieces whose entry surface runs essentially parallel to the rear wall, so that several back and forth movements of the ultrasonic pulse occur in the workpiece.
- the angle probe is placed next to the area to be tested and the sound signal is sounded, so to speak, laterally into the relevant area. This is the case, for example, with the ultrasonic inspection of welds.
- the ultrasonic wave runs into the material until partial or complete reflection takes place at an interface. If the reflecting surface is perpendicular to the direction of propagation, the sound wave is reflected in its original direction and, after a certain period of time, reaches a piezoelectric oscillator arranged in the angle test head, which converts it back into an electrical pulse.
- the too returning ultrasound is partially reflected again at the interface between the vibrator and the workpiece surface, this small amount of sound passes through the workpiece a second time. In this way, a so-called echo sequence is created in the pulse-echo method through multiple reflection at interfaces (test part rear wall or error).
- the sound is reflected between the entrance surface and the rear wall of the test specimen and runs at a certain angle into the direction away from the angle test head.
- the angle probe When checking weld seams, the angle probe is moved along the weld seam until a maximum false echo arises.
- the received echo signals are displayed directly on the monitor.
- the representation is generally made as a so-called A-picture, in which the voltage values of the received echo signals are displayed over the time axis. If there are multiple back and forth movements between the entrance surface and the rear wall, a sequence of equally spaced echo signals is obtained, the amplitude of which generally decreases with increasing time.
- the individual back and forth passages i.e. the distance of the sound from the entrance surface to the rear wall and vice versa, are each referred to as legs. Starting from the angle test head, a first leg is thus first created, which runs obliquely from the entry surface to the rear wall. There the sound is reflected and a second leg is formed, which runs from the rear wall to the entrance surface, etc.
- test specimen For a successful manual examination of the test specimen, it is necessary dig that the tester moves the test specimen with the angle test head and with constant accuracy. This is the only way to achieve a sufficiently precise result. This is also particularly important for later documentation of the examination. Especially when examining large test specimens, especially when examining long weld seams, it can happen that the inspector does not keep to the distance to be traveled due to lack of concentration.
- the tester must therefore always keep an eye on the test specimen and, for example, does not receive any feedback from the monitor about the position of the angle test head in relation to the weld seam to be examined. This means that the examiner must always look at the monitor and the test specimen alternately. If, for example, he detects an error on the monitor during the measurement, i.e. in the A-scan, and responds too late, the hand with the angle probe has already moved away from the crucial point. Since the inspector had only looked at the engine, it was relatively difficult for him to find the relevant position.
- the aim of the invention is to develop a method for evaluating ultrasound signals generated with the aid of an angle test head, in which the tester already receives additional information during the test in such a way that it is easier for him to test the test body.
- the invention is intended to result in the tester receiving auxiliary information during the examination, which makes it easier for him to precisely guide the angle test head.
- this is achieved both by an ultrasound test device and by a method in that the received electrical Echo signals are shown on the display in such a way that you can tell which leg they come from.
- the invention is not only suitable for the manual checking of test specimens, it also supports the automated traversing of a test specimen with an angle test head. This is because a tester, who does not control the path of the angle probe with his hand, immediately recognizes from the display with a brief glance at the monitor whether the point to be tested, e.g. the weld seam, is in the correct leg of the sound path and thus the angle probe is at the correct distance from the weld.
- error is not only to be understood literally, that is, not only in the sense of inconsistency, but rather should be understood in the sense of a significant signal.
- the invention thus includes the finding of any relevant points in a test specimen.
- the prerequisite for such a system is that the insonification angle and the Wall thickness of the test specimen are known. From this information, the sound path for one leg and thus the transition from one leg to the next or the point at which the sound is reflected on the entrance surface or on the rear wall can be easily calculated.
- the different representation of the legs on the monitor or those areas that each correspond to one leg can be done by any suitable display method.
- the area of the measurement curve that is assigned to a particular leg can be highlighted by a special hatching or a special shade of gray in the background. This means that the measurement curve itself remains unchanged.
- the information as to which leg the respective area of the measurement curve is based on is generated by the background.
- an additional symbol is also conceivable at those points on the measurement curve at which the sound is reflected on the entrance surface or on the rear wall. These points correspond to the transitions from one leg to the next.
- Such symbols are, for example, alphanumeric characters or dashed lines that intersect the measurement curve.
- the monitor has a color display.
- the measurement curve can then be displayed in different colors depending on which leg the measurement curve is based on.
- the use of strong colors, for example of primary colors, is appropriate.
- the background of the measurement curve can also be displayed in accordance with different colors.
- other color monitors, such as plasma displays have also proven their worth.
- the angle test head has a button for recording the zero point position at the beginning of the test process. This means that the test begins at a defined point on the test specimen, this point being saved in the system. It is thus possible to trace the relevant positions of the angle test head afterwards on the basis of the stored data.
- the angle test head has means that serve to indicate the respective position on the surface of the body to be tested in relation to a location that was present at the time of the measurement start.
- This can be done, for example, with the aid of a digital camera that is firmly connected to the housing of the angle test head. It is oriented in such a way that it covers the surface of the body to be tested. It should provide an image of this surface as close as possible to the point at which a central beam of the active shell element passes through the surface.
- an electronic image of the section of the surface that is located under the lens of the digital camera that is to say, lies in the object plane, at intervals.
- the section can have, for example, the dimensions of a few millimeters, for example 2 2 or 4 x 4 mm.
- An image of the respective section of the surface is preferably taken from the digital camera at predetermined fixed time intervals. For this purpose, reference is made to application DE 100 58 174 A1 of the same applicant.
- the area of the test specimen to be examined is shown on the monitor or the display that is of interest during the examination.
- This can be the weld seam to be examined, for example. If the weld seam geometry is known and stored in the ultrasound test device or in the computer, both spatial limit values and limit values with regard to the amplitude to be taken into account can be entered. If the zero point position was determined at the beginning of the measuring process, the distance of the angle probe from the weld seam can be determined based on the leg length or the wall di and the angle of incidence can be calculated at any time. It is therefore possible to display the area of the weld seam on the monitor at any time and regardless of the position of the angle probe. Then the different representation of the legs is particularly advantageous. This is because if the distance to the weld seam is correctly maintained, a possible error or a relevant signal must always occur in the same leg and the monitor and / or the measurement curve must accordingly always have the same display.
- the relevant signal must occur in a distance range of two or three legs, for example, so that the representation changes accordingly.
- the individual legs are not shown in a special shape, but rather an outward and an outward walk, that is to say two legs connected to one another, are represented in the same way. Areas of several legs can also be represented in the same way. It is also possible that when testing a test specimen with an ultrasound test device that is just penetrating the test specimen, the different back and forth movements between the entrance surface and the rear wall are shown differently. Finally, it can also make sense if the display of the measurement curve does not depend on the origin of the measurement data, but is only determined by previously defined time windows. For example, the measurement curve can be displayed in yellow after a certain period of time and then change to a different color after a certain time.
- FIG. 1 a basic illustration of the sound curve of an ultrasound signal starting from an angle test head through a test specimen
- Figure 2 an exemplary representation of an A-picture according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows the basic structure of an ultrasonic measurement with an angle probe 10 as an ultrasonic test device in cross section.
- the angle test head 10 which contains a transmitter and a receiver, is connected to a monitor 12, which in turn has a display 14, via a line 16.
- monitor 12 which in turn has a display 14, via a line 16.
- line 16 another type of connection, for example by radio, is also conceivable.
- the angle test head 10 is arranged on a test body 18.
- the test specimen 18 is here a section of a steel plate which is connected to a second steel plate via a weld seam 20.
- the test specimen 18 has an entry surface 22 and a rear wall 24.
- a sound path is indicated as a line between the entrance surface 22 and the rear wall 24.
- transmission pulses are generated, i.e. the sound is first sounded obliquely into the test body 18 at a predetermined angle ⁇ , forms a first leg 28, is then reflected on the rear wall 24, forms a second leg 30, and returns to the entry surface 22, is reflected again and forms a third leg 32, etc.
- the sound path 26 crosses the weld seam 20 in the region of its second leg 30. From a wall thickness 34 and the angle ⁇ , it is easily possible to determine the length of a leg 28 , 30, 32 or the point of the to calculate transitions from one leg 28, 30, 32 to the next.
- the sound encounters an error 36, for example a blow hole, it is reflected and, depending on the orientation of the error, returns as an echo signal to the receiver. If the tester knows which leg 28, 30, 32 has hit the error 36, he can immediately deduce the approximate distance of the error 36 from the angle test head 10, at least he knows that the error occurs on the path of the corresponding leg 28, 30 , 32 is located.
- an error 36 for example a blow hole
- the angle test head 10 has a button for recording the zero point position at the beginning of the test process. This means that the test begins at a defined point on the test specimen, this point being saved in the system.
- the angle test head 10 has a means 38 which is fixedly connected to the angle test head 10 and serves to indicate the respective position on the surface of the body to be tested in relation to a location that was present at the time of the measurement start. This can be done, for example, with the aid of a digital camera that is firmly connected to the housing of the angle test head. It is oriented so that it covers the surface of the test specimen.
- A-picture 40 which is shown on the display 14 of the monitor 12. Plotted over a time axis 41 in seconds (as the x axis) is the voltage value U in volts of the received signals (voltage value axis 43) on the y axis.
- the transmitter periodically emits transmission pulses which cause the angle test head 10 to emit short-term ultrasound pulses.
- the individual ultrasonic pulses first run through a coupling device. A portion of each pulse is generally reflected on the entry surface 22 and arrives as an entry echo 42 in time before further signals in the receiver. A part each of the ultrasonic pulse generally penetrates the workpiece and, as already explained, is first reflected on the rear wall 24 and accordingly propagates between the entry surface 22 and the rear wall 24 in the test specimen. The measurement curve 44 shown arises.
- part of the ultrasound pulse that has penetrated into the workpiece is also reflected at imperfections such as the defect 36, if there are any.
- the ultrasound measuring device or a computer interacting with it calculates the positions at which one leg 28, 30, 32 merges into the next, that is to say the sound is reflected at the entry surface 22 or the rear wall 24.
- this data is used to visually show the individual legs 28, 30, 32 on the display 14. As shown in FIG. 2, this can be done by lines 46 which intersect the measurement curve 44 at the corresponding points.
- the area of the test specimen 18 to be examined is shown on the monitor 12 or the display 14 which is of interest during the examination.
- This can be the weld seam 20 to be examined, for example.
- Both spatial limit values and limit values with regard to the amplitudes to be taken into account tude can be entered and taken into account. This means that only signals are displayed whose origin is either the area of the weld seam 20 to be examined and / or whose signal strength exceeds the minimum limit value or or falls below the maximum limit value. This also makes the examiner's job easier.
- the device according to the invention and in particular also the method carried out with it for testing workpieces are suitable for series measurement.
- An example of a series measurement is the testing of welded joints on motor vehicle bodies. The test device is first adjusted on a workpiece or a few workpieces, then the series test is carried out.
